Hey guys, I’m 21m.
I’m lowkey looking to get into surfing but I still have this fear of deep water. I like the vibe of just being able to go out in the water and have fun but even looking out at the big ocean or bodies of water freak me out, especially underwater. I know how to swim and I’m starting to implement practice more consistently cause I have a pool at my family’s house. Anyone have any advice on how I can get over this fear and start practicing surfing. Can I still get good at this age if I’m starting at that 21/22 age?

Hey guys,

I don’t really post on Reddit much because the advice can be hit or miss, but I’ve been dealing with something and wanted to see if anyone relates.

Lately I’ve been feeling really disconnected from life. I have goals and I’m working toward them, so it’s not like I’m doing nothing—but outside of that, I just don’t really care about much. Its like I'm just going to go, moving to move.

Sometimes I even catch myself thinking I’d rather stay in my own head or in a dream than actually deal with real life, especially when it feels like if I don’t reach these goals I'm focused on, none of this really means anything anyway.

I think a lot of this might come from how I grew up. I spent a lot of time feeling like I had to rely on myself, like no one was really there when I needed it. I was around a lot of fake and two-faced people, and that stuck with me. Even now, I treat people with respect, but I don’t feel connected to them.

I’ve also drifted from my parents as I’ve gotten older—especially my dad. Me and my mom are okay, but we’re just very different people.

What really messes with me is that even when I do put in the work and try to do everything right, it still feels like things blow up in my face or don’t go how I expected. After a while, it just makes everything feel pointless.

I don’t know if this is just part of getting older, or if something’s off with me, but I figured I’d ask—has anyone else felt like this and how they deal with it?
